Pig and Whistle Company, a small company following ASPE, is adjusting and correcting its books at the end of 2017. In reviewing its records, it compiles the following information.

a) Pig and Whistle has failed to accrue sales commissions payable at the end of each of the last two years, as follows:

B) In reviewing the December 31, 2018 inventory, Pig and Whistle discovered errors in its inventory-taking procedures that have caused inventories for the last three years to be incorrect, as follows:

Pig and Whistle has already made an entry that recognized the incorrect December 31, 2018 inventory amount.

C) In 2018, Pig and Whistle changed the depreciation method on its office equipment from double-declining-balance to straight-line because of a change in the pattern of benefits received. The equipment had an original cost of $160,000 when purchased on January 1, 2016. At that time, it was estimated that the office equipment had an eightyear useful life and no residual value. Depreciation expense recorded prior to 2018 under the double-declining- balance method was $70,000. Pig and Whistle has already recorded 2018 depreciation expense of $22,500 using the double-declining-balance method.

D) Before 2018, Pig and Whistle accounted for its income from long-term construction contracts on the completed- contract basis because it was unable to reliably measure the degree of completion or the estimated costs to complete. Early in 2018, Pig and Whistle changed to the percentage-of-completion basis for financial accounting purposes. The change was a result of experience with the project and improved ability to estimate the costs to completion and therefore the percentage complete. The completed-contract method will continue to be used for tax purposes. Income for 2018 has been recorded using the percentage-of-completion method. The following information is available:

Required:

1) Prepare the necessary journal entries at December 31, 2018 to record the above corrections and changes as appropriate. The books are still open for 2018. As Pig and Whistle has not yet recorded its 2018 income tax expense and payable amounts, tax effects for the current year may be ignored. Pig and Whistle’s income tax rate is 25%. Assume that Pig and Whistle applies the taxes payable method of accounting for income taxes.

Hot Weelz Ltd., which began operations in January 2015, follows IFRS and is subject to a 30% income tax rate. In 2018, the following events took place:

a) The company switched from the zero-profit method to the percentage-of-completion method of accounting for its long-term construction projects. This change was a result of experience with the project and improved ability to estimate the costs to completion and therefore the percentage complete.

b) Due to a change in maintenance policy, the estimated useful life of Hot Weelz’s fleet of trucks was lengthened.

c) It was discovered that a machine with an original cost of $220,000, residual value of $30,000, and useful life of four years was expensed in error on January 23, 2017, when it was acquired. This situation was discovered after preparing the 2018 adjusting entries but before calculating income tax expense and closing the accounts. Hot Weelz uses straight-line depreciation and takes a full year of depreciation in the year of acquisition. The asset’s cost had been appropriately added to the capital cost allowance (CCA) class in 2017 before the CCA was calculated and claimed.

d) As a result of an inventory study early in 2018 after the accounts for 2017 had been closed, management decided that the weighted average cost formula would provide a more relevant presentation in the financial statements than the FIFO cost formula. In making the change to weighted average cost, Hot Weelz determined the following:

Required:

1. Analyze each of the four 2018 events described above. For each event, identify the type of accounting change that has occurred, and indicate whether it should be accounted for with full retrospective application, partial retrospective application, or prospective application.

2. Prepare any necessary journal entries that would be recorded in 2018 to account for events C (ignore income tax considerations) and D.

Terry Smith and two of his colleagues are considering opening a law office in a large metropolitan area that would make inexpensive legal services available to those who could not otherwise afford services. The intent is to provide easy access for their clients by having the office open 360 days per year, 16 hours each day from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. The office would be staffed by a lawyer, paralegal, legal secretary, and clerk-receptionist for each of the two eight-hour shifts. In order to determine the feasibility of the project, Smith hired a marketing consultant to assist with market projections. The results of this study show that if the firm spends $1,025,000 on advertising the first year, the number of new clients expected each day will be 59. Smith and his associates believe this number is reasonable and are prepared to spend the $1,025,000 on advertising. Other pertinent information about the operation of the office follows: The only charge to each new client would be $69 for the initial consultation. All cases that warrant further legal work will be accepted on a contingency basis with the firm earning 30 percent of any favorable settlements or judgments. Smith estimates that 20 percent of new client consultations will result in favorable settlements or judgments averaging $4,900 each. It is not expected that there will be repeat clients during the first year of operations. The hourly wages of the staff are projected to be $59 for the lawyer, $49 for the paralegal, $39 for the legal secretary, and $29 for the clerk-receptionist. Fringe benefit expense will be 40 percent of the wages paid. A total of 580 hours of overtime is expected for the year; this will be divided equally between the legal secretary and the clerk-receptionist positions. Overtime will be paid at one and one-half times the regular wage, and the fringe benefit expense will apply to the full wage. Smith has located 6,000 square feet of suitable office space that rents for $65 per square foot annually. Associated expenses will be $58,500 for property insurance and $81,200 for utilities. It will be necessary for the group to purchase malpractice insurance, which is expected to cost $369,000 annually. The initial investment in the office equipment will be $129,000. This equipment has an estimated useful life of four years. The cost of office supplies has been estimated to be $10 per expected new client consultation. Required: Determine how many new clients must visit the law office being considered by Terry Smith and his colleagues in order for the venture to break even during its first year of operations. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer up to nearest whole number.) Compute the law firm’s safety margin.

Jackson County Senior Services is a nonprofit organization devoted to providing essential services to seniors who live in their own homes within the Jackson County area. Three services are provided for seniors—home nursing, Meals On Wheels, and housekeeping. Data on revenue and expenses for the past year follow: Total Home Nursing Meals On Wheels House- keeping Revenues $ 928,000 $ 266,000 $ 404,000 $ 258,000 Variable expenses 473,000 111,000 209,000 153,000 Contribution margin 455,000 155,000 195,000 105,000 Fixed expenses: Depreciation 69,500 8,600 40,500 20,400 Liability insurance 44,300 20,800 7,800 15,700 Program administrators’ salaries 115,500 40,700 38,500 36,300 General administrative overhead* 185,600 53,200 80,800 51,600 Total fixed expenses 414,900 123,300 167,600 124,000 Net operating income (loss) $ 40,100 $ 31,700 $ 27,400 $ (19,000) *Allocated on the basis of program revenues. The head administrator of Jackson County Senior Services, Judith Miyama, considers last year’s net operating income of $40,100 to be unsatisfactory; therefore, she is considering the possibility of discontinuing the housekeeping program. The depreciation in housekeeping is for a small van that is used to carry the housekeepers and their equipment from job to job. If the program were discontinued, the van would be donated to a charitable organization. None of the general administrative overhead would be avoided if the housekeeping program were dropped, but the liability insurance and the salary of the program administrator would be avoided. Required: 1-a. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of discontinuing the Housekeeping program? 1-b. Should the Housekeeping program be discontinued? 2-a. Prepare a properly formatted segmented income statement. 2-b. Would a segmented income statement format be more useful to management in assessing the long-run financial viability of the various services?
